Maybe an oil temp gauge too. It's always cool to have your dash full of gauges  makes it look cool | |

| FINNALLLY got a proper non slap-butt seat !  i also installed some snow chains on the tires.. the traction is completely ridiculous.. i can go trought 2-3ft snowbanks easily.. the ''new'' MST transaxle is also showing signs of abuse.. i will probably have to pop it open soon to see whats going on... also looking at 20x7-8 trail wolfs for the rear and 16inch snowhogs on the front to do: -front bumper W front towhooks -headlights, nilights dual flood.. -buy and mount new rear tires -rear mud flaps (got them just have to bolt them in) -belly pan, keep the sticks out of my belt.. -building a small alternator out of a small electric motor !? -steering stops -axle supports -change the batteries | |

| I was going to suggest just welding it in when you posted that it broke the last time. I hear a lot of racers, off-roaders, and pullers end up welding their axle shafts directly to their gears thus eliminating keys and snaprings. Off road tractor guys should do it that way too. | |

| yea the doc locker eliminates gars and snaprings but the weak link is the keystock that keep snapping.. its probably the 3rd time now. i tried with different keystock and same result, maybe too many clutch dumps  but hey its fun ! so yea welding it next time.. | |

| Yikes, really chewed up the axle. You've had bad luck with axle shafts and transaxles it seems. 18hp pressure lube opposed probably don't help that, hahaha. _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Sears LT11 Rat Rod Build *2019 Build-Off Winner!* - Allis B-110 x2, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655, 953 & 500 Special - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - White 1650 Yard Boss | |

| I did the same thing on my doc locker 2.0 . So I switched to the first version and the locker held fine. Wish I could say the same about the tranny after drifting in snow too much. | |

| The running boards on that remind me of the 1980's simplicity ones. Kind of a similar idea. Looks like a lot of work planned there, nice nice. And...HOOD RACK! Heck yeah, join the club! | |
